More Than Tomorrow

"It was inevitable. It happened so slowly, so imperceptibly, that no one saw it coming. And then... Chaos. Everything I knew, my home, my life, was destroyed right in front of my eyes."

Rasheed had it all. A loving family, caring friends, and was on the road to becoming successful economist. Then, he lost it all. The war broke out. Rasheed and his family were forced from their home. Their status and identity was stripped from them. They were seen as people who had no place in the world, no dreams, no ambition, no hope. With a stroke of luck, and lots of hope, Rasheed was selected from thousands of other refugee youth to attend a highly ranked university abroad. He took this opportunity to study journalism with the intention of going back to his country and making their stories heard. His family however, were not allowed to join him, and Rasheed struggled to get through his studies, make friends and get a job with the constant worry of his family's safety.

But throughout the struggles, throughout the tragedies, throughout the loss, there was always hope. There was always more than tomorrow.
